The HaddOck Case.

SIOUX CITY, IA, Sept. 15.-ThlS morning
Munchrath took the stand and testified that
he attendended the saloon keepers meet
ing on the evening of August 2, 1886, but
nothing was said about doing up Haddock
or any one else, the session lasting only
about five minutes. He gave minute de-
tail Of his movements on the night of the
murder and said that he first heard of the
parties going out in hack to watch Had
dock while in Junck's saloon. He hailed
Murphy's hack out of curiosity to see who
went, thinking that it was their hack. He
left crowd at Junck'S and went directly
east to his fathers house, arriving there at
the time indicated in the testimony of his
parents. He did not 90 west from Junck' S
with the crowd, as stated by Leavitt and
Bismarck, and did not know how many
did 80, nor did he know of any arrange
ment to do Haddoek any injury. He de-
MED all statements made by Leavitt as to
the proceedings at the meeting at Haden-
rid's and in this was cOrrOborated by
SimOnson, Arensdorf and others.
The: evidence in the Haddock case is all
in and this afternoon the lawyers began
making the closing arguments to the jury.
The defense rested this morning and only
few witnesses were called in rebuttal.
Only one new witness was examined to-
day. 1t will be difficult to impeach his
evidence. The new witness was John
Robinson. a citizen of first class character,
who was for many years superintendent
of the city water works. Mr.. Robinson
swore that on the night of the killing of
Rev. DR.. Haddock he was in Junck's sa-
loon and on coming out he saw lot of
saloon men, including Leavitt and Arens,
hall. Mr.. Robinson was not positive
whether or not the defendant, Munchrath,
was in the crowd. The witness said he
started east and the saloon crowd moved
west. This evidence was in direct con-
flict with the allbi testimony in the Arens-
dorf case and is considered very important
by the prosecution, as it will initiate
against Arensdorf when he is again placed
in the dock. The defense asked that the
evidence be stricken from the docket, but
the motion was denied by the court. The
fact that Robinson did not identify MUNICH
rath as one Of the conspiring crowd aids

Their Warlike Behavior Makes it
Necessary to Call on Troops
to Keep Order.
Allotment of Lands in Severalty the
Cause of Dissatisfaction Among
the Non-PrOgressive.
Surveyors Driven From Their Work
and Violence Threatened to
Progressive Indians.
Prompt Precautionary Action.

WASHINGTON, Sept. .1S.-Information has
been received at the Indian Office from In
dian Agent Kinney and Special Agent
West, at the Yankton, Dak., Indian
agency, that about thirty bucks of the
Yankton Sioux threaten violence to the
surveyors and to the special agents under
whose supervision allotments of land are
being made at that agency, as we'll as to
those of their tribe who are receiving their
allotments. The surveyors have several
times been driven from their work. Act
ing upon this information the commits
sioner Of Indian affairs, through the acting
secretary Of the interior, has requested the
war department to instruct the command
ing officer at Fort Randall. Dak., by
telegraph, to send sufficient force
to the reservation to protect
all persons from violence and to enforce
the orders of the agent when called upon
by him. The war department promptly
complied with this request. An inspector
on the ground reports that two-thirds of
these Indians desire allotments and the
thirty obstructionists belong to the nom
progressive element. In his letter OF re-
quest to the secretary Of war Acting Sec
retary Mildrew says:
1t is the desire of the department that
all allOtments of lands under the seyeralty
act of February g. 1887, shall be voluntary
on the part Of the Indians accepting them
and that all coercive measures be avoided,
especially the employment of military
force, except where absolutely necessary

a!lotments in the possession and enjoyment
of the same.
ST. PAUL, Sept. IA. - Yankton, Dak.,
special to the Pioneer" Press: Some of the
young bucks in the Yankton agency raided
the surveyors engaged in the survey of the
agency to give the Indians land in sever
atty, captured some of their outfit and
stopped the work. Soldiers have gone to
protect the workers. Most Of the agency
Indians are peaceable.

A Vote of the Stock Results in the
UndOnbted Election of the
Regular Ticket.
The Willard Element Represented on
the Board by Four Of the
Directors.
President Harris to be Succeeded by
Mr.. Oakes After Completion of
the Cascade Division.
The Directors,

New YORK, Sept. 15.-The stockholders
of the Northern Pacific met at p. m. and
voted for new board of directors. The
meeting adjourned after a vote until to-
morrow to give the tellers a chance to
count the vote. The following is the only
ticket in the field, which is undoubtedly
elected: August Belmont, Frederick Bill
lings, John F. Brookman, Benjamin p.
Cheyney, Robert Harris, Brayton Ives,
Thomas F. Oakes, Charles B. Wright,
Henry Willard, Edwin 81. Abbot, Charles
L. Colby, Colgate Hayt and John Trevor.
Many heavy stock holders we're present,
among them being Henry Willard, who
voted on $4,000 shares of stock. The vote
cast is believed to be the heaviest in the
history OF the company. The reports of
President Harris early retirement are con-
firmed, but it is SAID he will retain his po-
sition until the Cascade division through
Stamped Pass tunnel is completed, when
he will be succeeded by Vice President
Oakes.
The entire vote cast was 725,OOO shares.
The duplication of proxies cause the old
came to vote it Was found that the Viii
lard party had secured so many revoca-
cations OF proxies that it became neces-
sary to adjourn the meeting until to-mor-
row to enable the inspectors to count the
votes and make up their report. What the
policy of the new board would be if Viii
lard's ideas are carried out is plainly indi-
Gated in letter of his on the subject made
public here tonight. He declares that the
best plan to secure harmony between the
Northern and the Union Pacific lines is in
joint lease of the Oregon Railway & Nav
igation company by the two Pacifics, the
Northern and Union. 1t is said that this
will be one of the first acts of the new
board. 1t is stated that the presidency
was offered to Mr.. Willard, but he declined.
1t is thought the present officers will be re-
elected, but the retention of the presidency
by Robert Harris will be only for a little
while, as the Office has been promised to
Vice President Oakes.

friends, who were freely admitted. The
prisoners had agreed among themselves to
talk to no one for publication and all at
tempts to interview them were resoulutely
resisted.
PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES.
At all the police stations throughout the
city the full force of the reserves were on
duty and were given to understand that
they would be kept IN the barracks until
after the evacuation. At intervals the men
were made fall in line and drill with
rifles.
"OFFICIAL" CRITICISM.
The Arbeiter Zeitung, of which Spies
was editor, in announcing the decision,
says:
The supreme court at Ottawa, the legal
instrument of the capitalistic reign, has at
frmed the outrageous verdict which de-
cided that seven of our best comrades
shall suffer the death of martyrs for the
cause of the labOring people, and that the
eighth shall serve fifteen year sentence
in the penitentiary. We are, however, the
adherent of Spies and his comrades and
will not cry out for revenge at an inoppor-
tune time.
THE FEELING IN NEW YORK.
New YORK, Sept. A-The news of the
affirmation by the supreme court of Him
ois of the decision of the lower court in the
case of the condemned Chicago anarchists
caused great excitement among the New
York socialists and anarchists. Herr Most
was furious. His anarchist paper, the
Freizite, had gone to press when the news
came. The forms were ordered from the
press. He posted a notice saying that he
could not be interviewed and that the pa.
per would be published containing an ed
itorial on the matter. Most rolled up his
sleeves and proceeded to write an editorial
ADDRESSED "TO the w0rkingmen of all ma
tions." The editorial was a column and a
half long. He characterized the judges
who made the decision as infamous and
blood-thirsty fools" and the jury as corrupt
and cruel. He insisted that the deed of
November 18th could be prevented if the
anarchists so wished. He urged that the
wOrkingmen must show their military
strength. A mass meeting will be held in
Union Square next Monday night to pro-
test against the hanging of the condemned
men.
CHICAGO, Sept. 15.-It did not appear
when the anarchists emerged from their
cells to take exercise this morning that
the fatal news of yesterday had made any
impression on them. Spies came out with
cigar in his mouth, nodded to his fellows,
and then going to the sink washed two OF
three pieces of tinware with hot water
Lingg climbed into the barber chair and
was shaved. The others retired behind a
projecting corner of the cell house and
talked among themselves until their
friends began to come in.
The representative German paper of this
city, the Stattz Zeitung, which has hitherto
been in favor of the execution of the an
archists, comes out this morning in an edi-
torial somewhat supporting a Communication
of sentence.
